About this project

The Project:

UNCENShirt is an upcoming clothing brand that allows for
freedom of expression. Don't be censored by the world. Your choice of either
100 % regular or organic cotton, so that you can comfortably let your shirt do
the *dirty* talking. Uncensored + shirt = Uncenshirt

The Origin:

It all started one day when I was
listening to a song on the radio. The beat was catchy so I looked up the lyrics
and was shocked by what I read. I realized that I completely missed the meaning
of the song, and was instead falsely entranced by the music. And by these
strange turn of events, the idea of UNCENShirt was put in motion.

What does music have to do with
UNCENShirt?

Well, nothing. But after discovering
the actual lyrics to the song, that is when I realized the extent of how things
are censored and how it can be falsely perceived until it is viewed in its
uncensored format, for better or for worse. The word "uncensored" defines any
substance in its most raw and unadulterated
structure. Thinking what I’m thinking? People, let's be honest. If your
favorite song is being played, won't you want to hear the song in its entirety
without the annoyance of having your "favorite" words getting bleeped out? And if you're watching your favorite movie
and your "favorite" scene was
skipped or ‘censored’, would you jump for joy, or jump kick the wall? That'll explain
the hole... So let UNCENShirt express what you want to say. Without being
censored.

The Plan:

The plan is simple. I have the
samples, so now I am focusing on production. The Uncenshirt team, yours truly, individually hand heat presses the garments so
that each shirt is given the utmost care that it deserves. UncenShirt will
offer the option of either 100% cotton
or 100% organic cotton. Organic cotton reduces the environmental impact of cotton crops through sustainable
practices. And it just feels so soft. Also, premium organic bamboo shirts are
available. Yes, there are actual shirts made with bamboo, and no, they do not
come with pandas. However, bamboo shirts are softer than any of the pandas in your wildest dreams. Organic materials have a premium, but only because they lead to
spontaneous organicsm. It’s a ‘feel to believe’. And believe it, you have to feel it.

Funding:

This is where we need your support. The
money will be used to stock the initial inventory. This includes the costs for quality shirts and
printing with high quality materials. We want to be fully prepared to start shipping quality
UNCENShirt products as soon as we can. Currently, the UNCENShirt
line consists of black and white shirts with various designs. However, if I
receive any additional funding, I will add more garment styles and colors
available for production as well. So please tell me your favorite styles and colors,
Kickstarters!

What’s in it for you:

Supporting our project will get you anything from stickers/posters
to shirts to shout outs (literally)! You will be able to tell your friends that
YOU made UncenShirt possible. In addition, you will have our uncensored love
<3 Check out the tiered prizes on the right for all the specific info! As an
extra plus, Kickstarter backers will be able to show off their UncenShirts to
their friends and family, and strangers, weeks before it is available for sale anywhere
else. So boast and brag and make others jealous from the very beginning of
UncenShirt's journey! A secret: an exclusive Kickstarter-UNCENShirt surprise to
our supporters!

(A note! You won’t be charged unless Uncenshirt meets its
goal of $2200! Kickstarter is an all-or-nothing funding platform, meaning you
are only charged if the goal is met. If there is additional funding, it will be
used to expand Uncenshirt. So please spread the word to your friends and
family, and strangers! A second note- here is a link
to
get you started on pledging and supporting!)

Final Thoughts:

Like an uncut diamond, the word
"uncensored" might be viewed as dirty or crude. However, nobody finds
a perfectly cut diamond in a mine. It is necessary to know how an uncut diamond
looks like beforehand. That is the significance of UNCENShirt.

What is Uncenshirt? It’s All About Choice:
“The Sub- brands":

Here are just few of the designs that I have been working. Please check out the link to my website for all the upcoming designs! http://www.uncenshirt.com/

Shirt sizes run from x-small to x- large, both in male and female sizes in a regular fit style. (American Apparel)

1) Original UNCENShirt = words that
have been censored by someone, somewhere, at some time. These words are spelled
out with the word "uncensored", truly making it an UNCENShirt.

...............(a little secret UTS= under the shirt) for UNCENShirts.....................

2) UNiCENshirt = unison= what this world
needs. A little unity would help eliminate misunderstandings and conflict, both
between people and among nations. UNiCENshirt is a global shirt featuring words
promoting unison in as many languages needed. Don’t censor yourself, explore
different cultures and languages!

3 )UNDERCENshirt = understand = There are
things we just don’t understand about each other. Whether it’s words or actions,
there are times when things are censored and nothing is as it seems to be. UNDERcenshirt
grasps the ambiguity of everyday life and puts it on your shirt.

4) unCEENShirt = unseen= Sometimes things are not what they seem to be. Sometimes things that seem serious are actually silly.

......................Check out my website for more styles!...............................

I have been dedicated to making Uncenshirt a
reality, and I sincerely hope you can be with Uncenshirt from the beginning of
its journey here at Kickstarter. Please spread the word and let’s make this
project succeed together!
